AW: Wedding Gift Quilt Complete - PIP!
I've been working on this for the past few weeks. It's the Greatest Hits pattern from Oh Fransson's Mixtape Quilts II pattern set. It came out to 68" x 70" after washing.
I made it with Kate Spain's Fandango line with Kona Snow for sashing and Expresso for the binding.
It's absolutely not perfect (at all) but I love it and would like to keep it for myself. I'm certain the bride-to be will love it as well since we picked out the fabric together.

Thank you so much ladies for your help! I don't know if I would have finished this on time without you!

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."

It's 1/2" and I clearly hate myself. I really love the fully quilted texture though especially now that it is all wrinkled up after washing.
I figured with the tighter quilting it was less likely to fall apart with use.
